Rock climbing is an exhilarating and spectacular sport that is attracting more people than ever before. This book is written for those climbers starting out on their instructing career. It contains the ideas and information that should smooth their path into the world of instructing and guiding. However, it is also for climbers wanting to improve their skills and gain from the author's knowledge and experience of climbing and instructing. It goes beyond covering the necessary skills of ropework, problem-solving and safety, by advising on how to teach movement and help students train effectively. Also included are sections on communication skills, legal considerations, aid climbing and scrambling.
